First investment Property

[Danish Sheikh]

Hi guys,

I'm looking to make my first property purchase in PA and I'd like it to be income producing. Right now, I'm thinking of 2+ br townhouses, condos, apartments, or duplex's where I can rent out a room/portion. I just got a job in Spring House and I'd like for it to be within a 40 minute drive. I was hoping there'd be a university presence nearby. Problem is, I've lived in NJ my whole life so I know essentially nothing about PA living so I can't tell which cities will be good to invest in. I appreciate any advice.
